Brined and Grilled Pork Loin

Total time: 60 minutes Brining pork adds moisture and flavor, making what can be a somewhat dry cut, tender and succulent. It's easy to do and there's a lot of leeway on the timing: more than 6 hours but less than 24. If you don't have a deep enough bowl, try a saucepan or even a food bag that seals well. Use an 'instant read' meat thermometer.

Ingredients:

2 cups water very cold water

1 cup ice cubes

1/4 cup sea, kosher or other course salt

2 tbs brown sugar

2 tbs molasses

1 cup very strong coffee I used 3 tsp of instant coffee - so about 3 times stronger than normal

2 cloves garlic, crushed
just smash it with the flat of a knife or the heel of your hand
